[Send me an emoji for some writeblr positivity!]

Ahhh, thank you so much! Best of luck to you, as well~

🍟 — Talk about another writeblr’s WIP that everyone should check out!

WE’RE TALKING ABOUT @abalonetea‘s GROUNDHOG DAY FOR THIS ONE.

First off!! I love the unique concept that this takes place in a video game universe, where two games of clashing styles have been linked together through a glitch that switches two of the characters! That in itself lends such an intrigue to the story, with all sorts of wonderful references to your classic RPGs alongside so much marvelous worldbuilding with the creatures and locations and FOODS and the magic system and so much heckin’ more. I LOVE how the HEART concept works and affects the story, and there’s just! So much detail and it’s beautiful.

AND THEN THE CHARACTERS. Hhhhhh the dynamics are sooo lovely to read about, the relationships and the personalities and the backstories. It’s just. Ohhh, Katie’s characters all feel like they could be real, you know. Despite some not being entirely human. ^^ But each is so distinct!

I also love Katie’s dialogue writing skills and the way she uses varying text formats to ingrain the glitches and thoughts directly into the narrative, it’s such a unique style but works so absolutely well. Her writing is honestly such an inspiration to me, with how much emotion she can easily fit into her smaller passages, with how much she tortures her readers alongside her characters. Seriously Katie I really want my boys to be happy. YOU HEAR THAT. I WANT THEM TO HAVE HAPPINESS.

🍳 — Thank someone that’s made a huge impact on me and my writeblr experience!

@mvcreates is going to get about a thousand of these, I just know it, but TOO BAD HAVE ANOTHER. 

Mina is genuinely one of the main supporting pillars of this community. I’m absolutely certain so many are going to have the same wonderful things to say about her, but it’s because it’s all true, and it’s because she’s inspired and helped so many writeblrs.

I started out on here I believe just a few weeks after Mina, and she was one of the main blogs that inspired my aim to support other writeblrs as much as I could. Not only is she immensely supportive of other people’s content, both through reblogs and reviews as well as her hosted events and discord server, she also produces such amazing art and writing herself, and it’s just... ahhhh, it’s all so MARVELOUS to see and read!! I love her usage of symbolism and her seemingly magical ability to write so much in so little. It’s pushed me to try so many new things about my own wip!

Wait I remember this!!!Thanks for sticking with my late night cravings, I don’t think I actually went out to get late night snacks!

You’re a very comfortable presence on writeblr for me, I just feel really at ease with you? And every time you pop up on my dash, or in my notifs or whatever I get that little feeling of ‘oooh, yay, friend!’ You seem like such a lovely person and I love seeing you around ^^ And you’re a good writer!!!! So good!

Hey! Happy Sunday~

I’ve been taking a break from the WIPs I’ve had before, I haven’t really worked on them with my partners in a while, though I have a couple of new character ideas for them... I have written a couple of drabbles for them though for character explorations, and that’s me slowly getting back into those! I have a little one shot outlined for Vanessa in FQAC, Clara in Morsmordre, and Blake in Post-Script, so I just have to actually write them now.

Currently, I’ve been mulling over some WIP ideas I threw out into the void the other day here. I don’t really have any character ideas yet. I’ve just been musing over potential character subplots for Milk and Sugar, and brainstorming fantasy food for the post-apocalyptic story!

Congratulations on your productive writing week, you deserve your break ❤️❤️

An affectionate nickname that’s related to a dragon? What like, calling someone ‘lil dragon’ or something? As far as my experience and gut instinct goes... That’s not really a thing. 

I don’t know what your character is like or what you’re going for, but I would be very cautious in general about trying to shoehorn in meanings like that for a nickname because the Japanese language/culture often doesn’t work in the way people want it to. Especially considering that it’s a dragon — which immediately puts me on guard because it feels stereotypically Asian. Although to be fair, I know very little about your character.

When it comes to given names that tend to have dragon meanings attached to it, they are usually masculine names given to boys. Like Ryū (龍 or 竜), Ryūnosuke (竜之介), Tatsuyuki (竜之）to name a few. And nicknames given to them are usually just a shortened version of their name like Ryū, Ryū-chan, Tacchan, etc. and doesn’t necessarily mean dragon in any sort of way.

I guess the exception would be internet usernames that have some sort of dragon in them — then people who don’t know their real names might give them a dragon related nickname, though it would heavily depend on what the username is.

Thank you so much! I hope you like it~

Naturally flirty people are both simultaneously the best and the worst, it’s really hard to gauge whether they’re seriously flirting or not but it’s always a lot of fun talking to them. Any semblance of flirting usually means that there’s some sort of interest (i.e., they like you enough to say those things at the very least. They probably wouldn’t say it if they didn’t like you at all), so maybe you could try making your interest a bit clearer to see what happens?

Good luck ;D
